The Philadelphia Phillies have achieved a notable winning streak, securing nine consecutive victories at Citizens Bank Park, their longest since September 2010. This streak was extended with a recent 5-4 win over the San Francisco Giants, improving their season record to 25-11, the best in baseball and their best start since 1995. Key performances included Bryce Harper's three-run homer and pitcher Taijuan Walker's solid outing, allowing three runs over 6 1/3 innings. Zack Wheeler also contributed with a 1.64 ERA over eight starts. The Phillies' strong performance this season also includes winning 17 of their last 20 games, a +58 run differential, and not losing a series since the first two of the season.

Third time through order unkind to Giants starter Mason Black, a Lehigh University grad and childhood #Phillies fan. Bryce Harper 3-run homer and back-to-back doubles by Brandon Marsh and Nick Castellanos open 5-0 lead in fifth. Phils going for 4-game sweep and 5th straight win.
A vocal cheering section for Giants righty Mason Black behind visitors dugout. A lifelong Phillies fan, Lehigh U alum. A few friends (family?) took off their shirts after Black struck out Bryce Harper looking to end the first inning. Black is 20th Lehigh player to play in MLB.
Congrats to Mason Black on his @SFGiants debut. I caught up with him last year about this very moment ➡️ https://t.co/Zl1icDW9vc

Phillies 5, Giants 4 The Phillies are 24-11. It is the best record in baseball, and their best start since 1995. Bryce Harper hit a three-run homer. Taijuan Walker allowed three runs in 6 1/3 innings.
Phillies 5, Giants 4. Taijuan Walker threw six strong innings, then allowed another seventh-inning homer. But Bryce Harper homered. The Phillies are 24-11. They go for the mop Monday afternoon.
For the first time since September 2010, the @Phillies have won nine in a row at Citizens Bank Park! https://t.co/Imv26EqLVF
